Real Madrid's Next Ten Days Could Define The Season

If you thought that everything was going to be as easy as it was during January, you were wrong. This is the upcoming schedule for Real Madrid this early February.

Whether Ancelotti's men are ready for that challenge or not remains to be seen, but these four games will be very important both for the Copa del Rey and also the Liga BBVA.

The offensive line will now have to step their game up, especially against one of the world's greatest defensive sides in Atlético Madrid.

After those four games, Real Madrid will have some other easier matches before playing against Schalke 04 and Atlético de Madrid -again, this time in the Liga BBVA- in one week.
